As my art works are inspired from the old traditions and cultures mostly picked up from my village ‘Gobra’ that is why I write my name as Mahesh Pal Gobra,” says the world renowned artist Mahesh Pal Gobra.
A solo exhibition by Mahesh Pal Gobra from Bhopal is being put up at Rangdarshini Gallery, Bharat Bhavan. The solo painting exhibition began here from Tuesday at Bharat Bhavan which displays a series of paintings by Mahesh Pal Gobra.
Mahesh is an artist who focuses on different themes and just not sticks to one concept. His acrylic and oil paintings are a must watch for the art lovers of the city. Mahesh has done work on concepts of mythology, city scenes, issues like Bhopal Gas Tragedy, events like Raahgiri Day and more.
Indian mythology, puranas, literature and ordinary life experiences of common man all spring to life in his paintings. His uniqueness lies in the way he uses colours and techniques for his expression in the lines he draws and the shades of colours he uses. Everything blends nicely to give shape to his thought and subjects. His brush simply follows his feelings in the most natural way like a graceful flow of sacred river. His paintings are ever fresh, eternally new and give the utmost satisfaction to the eyes and deep satisfaction to the soul. His expression is completely revealing the Indian culture through his paintings.
The paintings that are presented before the visitors maintain the pristine beauty of form and colour that is to be identified according to visitor’s perceptions. His creations are highly appreciated by the viewers as they walk-through the gallery. The multicolored and varied features of mythology characters and city scenes charmed the spectators a lot. The exhibition would be on view till December 10.
